Triathlon had its Summer Olympics debut at the 2000 Games, in Sydney, and has been contested since then. It is governed by the International Triathlon Union.
The 2000 Summer Olympics saw the first appearance of the triathlon. 48 women and 52 men competed in separate triathlons. The distances used were the "international" or "standard" ones, with a 1.5 km swim, 40 km cycle, and a 10 km run. The 2004 triathlon was identical to the first in distance, but the 100-athlete quota was evened between 50 women and 50 men. The quota was further increased to 55 women and 55 men for the 2008 Beijing Olympics and remains the same for London 2012. In London, the women's triathlon takes place on Saturday 4 August and the men's on Tuesday 7 August. The triathlon will be one of the best free to view events during the games, with most of Hyde Park open for spectators without tickets.
The Olympic triathlon is composed of two medal events, one for men and the other for women. Both uses the same distances of 1.5 km, 40 km, and 10 km. Mass starts are used and drafting is allowed during the cycling phase. You can also purchase Olympic Triathlon Tickets from Sport Ticket Exchange.
